Mariya Aleksandrovna Bespalova (Russian: Мария Апександровна Беспалова; born 21 May 1986 in Leningrad) is a Russian hammer thrower.[1][2] She competed in the hammer throw event at the 2012 Summer Olympics.[3] On 30 March 2017, her 2012 Olympic results were annulled, after her second probe tested positive for banned substances.[4]
In 2015, Bespalova was suspended for four years after she failed a drug test for dehydrochlormethyltestosterone doping.[5][6]
